“Wooly Bully” was the band’s first and biggest hit. It became a worldwide success, selling three million copies and reaching No. 2 on the American Hot 100 chart on June 5–12, 1965, kept off the top by The Beach Boys’ “Help Me, Rhonda”[3] and The Supremes’ “Back in My Arms Again”.[4] It was the first American record to sell a million copies during the British Invasion ...
